Simple Formula
So you're matching on two columns and bringing back a third?
Saved from a previous post:
If you want exact matches for just two columns (and return a value from a
third), you could use:
=index(othersheet!$c$1:$c$100,
match(1,(a2=othersheet!$a$1:$a$100)*(b2=othersheet !$b$1:$b$100),0))
(all in one cell)
This is an array formula. Hit ctrl-shift-enter instead of enter. If you do it
correctly, excel will wrap curly brackets {} around your formula. (don't type
them yourself.)
Adjust the range to match--but you can't use the whole column.
This returns the value in othersheet column C when column A and B (of
othersheet) match A2 and B2 of the sheet with the formula.
And you can add more conditions by just adding more stuff to that product
portion of the formula:
=index(othersheet!$d$1:$d$100,
match(1,(a2=othersheet!$a$1:$a$100)
*(b2=othersheet!$b$1:$b$100)
*(c2=othersheet!$c$1:$c$100),0))
======
So your formula may look like:
=index(Pricelist!d2:d384,
match(1,(a16=pricelist!a2:a384)*(b16=pricelist!b2: b384),0))
(array entered)

I thought that I had a simple formula but now I can not get anything to work.
I have a pricelist spreadsheet set up. From that spreadsheet I want to pull
the information into a quote template. I thought that it would be just a
lookup.
If a16 & b16 is equal to Pricelist! A2:B384 then c16 is equal to d2:d384.
Help!! Thank you
